Default Am i crazy???

Ok i got my warrior back in late june and i rode alot this summer but now it's startin to not have enough power for me. i want to start modding it but i was thinkin bout gettin a raptor instead cuz im goin to out grow my warrior and i dont feel like dumping money into my warrior when i kno a stock raptor would be faster i am 14 and 130lbs. would a raptor be to big for me i would appreciate any feedback. also what is the best deal u can find on a 02 raptor wid no warranty.

i was also thinkin about a Z400 but i think i would be happier with a raptor becuasea Z is only 50 more cc. or less. and the Raptor is just one sick machine. also how do i make the raptor not so tippy.

My rappy doesn't feel tippy to me.......Maybe I'm used to it......
u just have to know your limits and the limits of your machine......

i would go w/ the z/kfx/dxm or w.e by ac. just because its a big diff going form a warrior ot raptor. i feel the z is more easy to get use to and my friends stock z w/baffle removed kills my slightly modded warrior. dad has a raptor and it feels weird to me and i dont feel safe jumping it. i wont do ne big jumps like i do w/ my warrior. i would try a z. cheaper. but it is not a raptor so its up to you. how tall r u buy the way

go w/ the breeze

j/k

If you've got that "feeling" (I think we've all had it) that you're about to get bored with your current machine, I'd say you're a good enough rider to handle the Raptor. Just spend some time and get a feel for it and you'll be set. They're a blast to ride.
